Cervinis Ram Air

LowDown · 10-10-2001, 09:42 AM

Anyone have any experience with Cervinis Functional hood kits? Are they worth the money? Do you still get sufficient airflow on the low end?

We're going to be putting one of those on my dads 98 GT conv so I am interested in first hand too. From what I know about ram air the airflow only makes addnl hp above 60 mph or so. At low speed plenty of cold airflow but not enough for the ram air effect

As was stated, ram air comes into effect at about 60mph and you will always be getting cold air though. I think its worth the $$$
